Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for coating a surface and to a device for applying it.
  • the deposited layer should have a substantially constant thickness (with an allowed variation of + or ⁇ 15%).
  • the layer deposited on the surface is neither opaque, nor too diffusing, substantially has the same interference properties in the visible domain and has the same optical properties on all the areas of the coated surface.
  • the determination of the optical quality of a deposit is a standard operation of one skilled in the art.
  • an anti-reflective layer on glass should have a typical thickness from 120 nm ⁇ 15% and a refractive index of 1.24 ⁇ 5%.
  • the invention relates to coating by spraying.
  • the general principle of this method consists of placing in a tank, a solution containing the coating material and a solvent, and then of generating microdroplets, for example by means of an atomizer.
  • the solution is transformed into droplets, by pressure forces, vibration/cavitation forces and electrostatic repulsion/attraction forces which overcome the surface tension forces and the viscosity forces governing the initial state of the solution.
  • the generated microdroplets typically have a rated size of a few microns in diameter ⁇ 300%.
  • the smallest droplets are then carried away by a carrier gas towards the object to be coated.
  • document EP 0 486 393 in the name of Langlet et al. describes a method and a device for coating a surface by spraying, wherein the spraying is carried out in a closed and leak-proof reactor for which it is possible to control the composition of the atmosphere and to thus limit the evaporation of the solvent before the droplets are deposited on the surface to be coated.
  • the device does not use any nozzle, in the sense that there is no acceleration of the aerosol. Indeed, the aerosol flow is driven towards the top of the reactor and encounters a second flow of carrier gas directed towards the object to be coated.
  • the conical shape of the reactor moving away towards the surface to be coated induces a reduction in the velocity of the aerosol.
  • the flow is not accelerated but simply confined in a certain geometry by means of a compressed air sleeve.
  • the droplets cannot diffuse out of the sleeve but their velocity is not increased.
  • the state of the art proposes producing the coating in a controlled atmosphere, i.e. in a closed and leak-proof reactor. This gives the possibility of saturating the atmosphere with solvent (limits the evaporation) and of conforming the aerosol flow in a controlled way by using compressed air jets around the aerosol flow (the compressed air jets do not mix with the aerosol) in order to model it and define a specific shape of the aerosol flow without accelerating it.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to propose a surface coating method and device, allowing simple, rapid and homogeneous coating (in structure, in composition and in thickness) of a surface, optionally a complex surface.
  • the invention proposes going against present practices by spraying over the relevant surface a coating material as an aerosol with a nozzle in order to very strongly accelerate the material flow relatively to the existing devices. Unexpectedly, this acceleration of the droplets generates a homogeneous layer with an accurate and adjustable thickness.
  • the object of the invention is a method for coating a surface by spraying an aerosol over a surface, comprising the following steps:
  • the invention also relates to a device for coating a surface by spraying an aerosol over a surface, comprising:
  • the invention also relates to a system for coating a surface of an object by spraying an aerosol over the surface of the object, comprising:
  • FIG. 1 a schematic sectional view of a device according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 a schematic planar view of the outlet of a nozzle used in the method according to the invention
  • FIG. 3 a schematic perspective view of a nozzle used in the method according to the invention
  • FIGS. 4 a , 4 b , 4 c and 4 d schematic perspective views of four embodiments of a device according to the invention.
  • an aerosol corresponds to a set of liquid particles, the composition of which corresponds to that of the initial solution, modified by the different exchange equilibria occurring with the carrier gas.
  • the particles leaving the generator and then the nozzle have a rated size of few microns in diameter ⁇ 300% and are characterized in that they are subject to the Brownian motion which allows them to be carried away by the carrier gas without settling.
  • the invention proposes a coating technique by spraying an aerosol which, by its application methods, allows, unlike the known solutions of the prior art, easy deposition of optical quality layers by using a nozzle, the geometry of which depends on the geometry of the part to be coated.
  • the nozzle generally has the role of confining the flow so that the latter arrives with an increased velocity (typically greater than 4 meters per second) on the surface to be coated.
  • This deposition technique is compatible with parts for which the morphology of the surface to be coated does not at least vary over the deposition distance (for example, tubes, cylinders, bars with varied section, flat or curved plates in one direction, etc).
  • the invention relates to a method for coating a surface 100 by spraying a film-forming aerosol 110 on the surface, comprising the following successive steps:
  • the aerosol is preferentially formed by a pneumatic method, from a coating liquid solution, comprising at least one non-volatile, film-forming compound and a carrier gas phase.
  • the composition of the aerosol may be controlled at the injection or by bubbling or by enrichment after generating the aerosol.
  • FIG. 4 a illustrates an exemplary set up for generating an aerosol.
  • the device comprises a pressurized air admission 10 inducing the sucking up of the liquid solution comprising the non-volatile, film-forming material in an immersed capillary 20 by the Venturi effect.
  • the sucked-up liquid is projected on an impactor 30 which divides it into drops falling into the tank 31 and into microdroplets making up an aerosol 102 which is directed towards the outlet 40 of the atomizer. And the aerosol is then conveyed by a pipe 50 to a washing flask filled with solvent 60 and then through a tube 110 to the substrate 100 .
  • References 61 and 62 illustrate alternative positions of the solvent flask in the set up.
  • the aerosol is then sprayed onto the surface 100 by means of a nozzle 120 , either with a small diameter ( FIG. 4 a ) for a selective deposit, or including a rectilinear slot ( FIG. 4 b ) for a deposit covering a large surface.
  • the surface 100 may be positioned on a plate 90 with motor-driven “two-axes” translation for optional spraying round trips.
  • the substrate is fixed while the nozzle, or even the aerosol generator, and the washing flask may be positioned on a movable apparatus 91 so as to be able to apply the deposit on already “set up” surfaces (glazings on buildings, solar panels in parks, urban furniture . . . ).
  • the geometry of the nozzle is such that the outlet is ideally narrow in the direction parallel to the translation and elongated in the direction perpendicular to the translation, and is adjusted to the morphology of the substrate such that the distance between the nozzle and the surface remains constant over the whole width of the deposit.
  • the aperture of the nozzle may also have any other morphologies depending on the cases.
  • the outlet of the nozzle is a slot with a width e and length L.
  • the section S is therefore equal to L*e.
  • the length of the nozzle and therefore of the slot is 5 cm.
  • the inventors realize that by positioning the outlet of the nozzle at a distance D determined craftily, it is possible to obtain quasi-systematically coatings of optical quality with strong aerosol velocity values, thereby accelerating the method.
  • the numerical coefficients ⁇ and ⁇ depend on the type of solution used (alcoholic solution or aqueous solution) and on the presence or on the absence of a controlled atmosphere.
  • the composition of the carrier gas phase is that of ambient air, and the solution used is an alcoholic solution: the solvent is an alcohol such as ethanol EtOH and the soluble material is selected from an alcoholate of general formula M(OR) n , wherein M is a metal or silicon, and R is an alkyl organic group C n H 2n+1 , and a precursor of such an alcoholate.
  • the solvent is an alcohol such as ethanol EtOH
  • the soluble material is selected from an alcoholate of general formula M(OR) n , wherein M is a metal or silicon, and R is an alkyl organic group C n H 2n+1 , and a precursor of such an alcoholate.
  • the composition of the carrier gas phase is ambient air which was modified in that the air flow is loaded with solvent vapor before step F) (during step D) or after leaving the nozzle, for example by means of a chamber with a controlled atmosphere), and the solution used is an alcoholic solution.
  • the composition of the carrier gas phase is ambient air, and the solution used is an aqueous solution: the solvent is water, and the material intended to cover the surface to be coated is a soluble material, which may be suspended or may be dispersed in water such as titanium oxide nanoparticles.
  • the composition of the carrier gas phase is ambient air which was modified in that the air flow is loaded with solvent vapor before being sprayed, and the solution used is an aqueous solution.
  • the homogeneity of the deposit in terms of thickness and structure, depends on the rheology of the initial solution (viscosity, surface tension, volatility, etc.), on the conditions for generating the aerosol (pressure, flow, composition of the carrier gas), on the type of aerosol generator used, but mainly here by the distance between the surface and the nozzle.
  • the thickness of the deposit is directly proportional to the deposited amount per unit surface.
  • the microdroplets should arrive provided with a solvent on the surface in order to wet the surface and to coalesce together in order to form a thin liquid layer.
  • the evaporation of the solvent leading to the condensation of the precursors and to the formation of the gel and then of the solid film should only occur after the deposition phase.
  • An atmosphere enriched with solvent (0 ⁇ relative vapor pressure P R (solvent) ⁇ 100%) during this phase may prove to be necessary in order to slow down the natural evaporation of the solvent of the droplets of the aerosol.
  • the gas carrier flow transporting the droplets is passed into a bubbler 60 filled with a solvent, for example ethanol, in order to be also loaded with vapor of this solvent before being sprayed onto the substrate.
  • the solvent level should be controlled so as to remain equal during the deposition. With this particularity, the control of the atmosphere during the deposition is thus managed upstream and therefore does not require necessarily a closed chamber around the outlet.
  • a nozzle is applied at the end of the transport. It gives the possibility of channeling the flow of particles before their arrival on the substrate.
  • the applied nozzle may have shapes adapted to the desired deposition depending a thin localized covering or on the covering of a large surface area.
  • the aerosol may be applied via the nozzle, perpendicularly to a substrate resting in a horizontal position on a motor-driven support allowing its translation along two directions.
  • the nozzle may be placed on a motor-driven device allowing it to have any type of movement (translation, rotation, tilt) with respect to the substrate.
  • the main difference relatively to the state of the art relates to the velocity of the aerosol flow arriving on the surface.
  • everything is applied for accelerating the aerosol (droplets+carrier gas) to above four meters per second.
  • everything is applied for maintaining the flow as slow as possible as explained in the introduction.
  • the film-forming initial solution may be of any kinds, but those which apply in priority to this invention are sol-gel solutions (either organic or inorganic or mixed).
  • the film precursor corresponds to a mixture of several non-volatile compounds, and the solvent is typically selected so that it is capable of producing a homogeneous dispersion, or total solubilization of the precursor species) and that it may evaporate under the deposition conditions.
  • these are typically alcoholic or hydro-alcoholic solutions.
  • the carrier gas is selected from gases or mixtures of gases capable of remaining in the gaseous state during the whole of the steps of the method. It is generally not very, and preferably not at all reactive with the coating solution, i.e. it will not substantially modify the chemical properties unless if this is desired.
  • the carrier gas is generally introduced into the system as a continuous or discontinuous flow and able to participate into the formation of the aerosol. This will be in the majority of the cases, pressurized air of industrial quality, but any other compositions may be contemplated, notably a neutral gas such as nitrogen or argon.
  • the aerosol may be formed with the different techniques known to one skilled in the art. Mention may notably be made of atomization, which corresponds to the subdivision of a liquid into liquid particles of small size, by means of a pneumatic atomizer, notably with impact, either ultrasonic or electrostatic. In the three cases, the solution is transformed into droplets, respectively by the pressure forces, the vibration/cavitation forces, and the electrostatic repulsion/attraction forces which overcome the surface tension and viscosity forces governing the initial state of the solution.
  • Pneumatic atomization is generally designated by the name of “two-fluid atomization” since it implies the crossing of the liquid solution with a pressurized gas, generally air.
  • a pressurized gas generally air.
  • Different mechanisms may be encountered such as simple pressurized atomization, atomization by centrifugation, assisted atomization with air, assisted atomization with an air jet, atomization with effervescence or further impact atomization (and a Venturi or collision effect).
  • Ultrasonic atomization implies the contact between the liquid solution and a surface excited by ultrasonic waves. Both routes are mainly used in order to allow this contact: either the liquid crosses a vibrating nozzle excited by ultrasonic waves, or the liquid is poured into a glass container equipped with a piezoelectric ceramic transducer.
  • Electrostatic atomization implies a conductive substrate and a very high voltage (between 3 and 15 kV) issued between the latter and a metal capillary wire through which passes the solution.
  • the droplets generated at the outlet of the capillary, by repulsion between similar charges in the ionized liquid, are directly directed in a direction as a response to the imposed electric field.
  • the pneumatic atomization method of the solution into droplets is preferred. It is generally carried out by means of a pneumatic atomizer by impact, also called atomizer by the Venturi or collision effect.
  • the principle is based on an admission of pressurized air into the atomizer inducing suction by the Venturi effect of the liquid coating solution, contained in a tank, in an immersed capillary. At the non-immersed end of the capillary, there is projection of the liquid sucked up on an impactor, such as a small sphere which divides it into microdroplets. The larger droplets fall into the tank while the smaller ones form an aerosol automatically directed towards the outlet of the atomizer.
  • linear nozzles for which the length may be less than or equal to the width of the surface to be treated gives the possibility of producing deposits in only one pass without having to adjust the sweeping deviations which may generate covering defects.
  • the latter may be a succession of base units which are attached together. The number of base units will define the pass width. Each unit will be equipped with one or several aerosol emissions depending on their length.
  • the flow may be optimized by adding an internal part used for breaking the direction of the flow.
  • the invention further gives the possibility of producing deposits from coating solutions of different natures and notably from solutions initially non-miscible with each other.
  • the invention may be applied by means of several aerosols. It is thus possible in step (c) to prepare several aerosols of different nature, and notably comprising different film precursors. These aerosols may be joined up beforehand with the vapor enrichment or before the injection.
  • the invention also relates to a method for coating a surface with a mixture of aerosols comprising the successive steps of generation, enrichment, mixing, ejection.
  • the invention also relates to a device and to a system for applying the method described above.
  • the device comprises:
  • the tube 50 - 110 comprises a projection nozzle 120 at a second end 112 .
  • the projection nozzle comprises an outlet with a section S smaller than the section of the inlet, so that during use, a flow F of aerosol is accelerated between the inlet and the outlet of the nozzle.
  • the invention also relates to a complete system for coating a surface of an object, the system comprising the preceding device as well as a support for the object, the support and the outlet of the nozzle of the device being adjustable in position relatively to each other.
  • the system according to the invention is controlled by a computer.
  • a control unit provided with an interface, a processor and a memory comprising a computer program for applying the method according to the invention.
  • the user may enter, depending on the surface to be coated and on the aerosol solution used, the flow velocity which is the best adapted to its device, and the processor will automatically command a movement between the outlet of the nozzle and the surface to be coated for laying them out at the distance D required by the method according to the invention, either with the ratio R2, or with the relationship of the type a*exp(VD) between the ratio R1 and distance D.
  • the system is preferably equipped with means, preferably automated means, allowing its displacement relatively to the surface, in particular when it is supported on the latter, as well as means allowing specific displacement of the coating device.
  • the system also advantageously comprises a means for adjusting the partial pressure of the solvent of the carrier gas phase such as for example, a bubbler.
  • the invention is a comprehensive invention since it may be used for different types of deposits, coating or film, like the localized thin deposit (network) or the total deposit covering large surfaces, notably by means of the possible use of nozzles with different sizes and shapes.

  • the polydispersed particles generated from a solution based on the methanol solvent include a diameter comprised between 0.0035 ⁇ m and 35.00 ⁇ m.
  • the deposition conditions are 25° C./atmospheric pressure.
  • the carrier gas is in every case compressed, filtered and dried air. The same results were obtained with compressed nitrogen with a purity >99.99%.
  • the deposits were carried out with nozzles with a slot width e comprised between 0.4 mm and 1.4 mm and at the distances between the nozzle and the substrate D varying from 1 to 13 mm.
  • the nozzle used for the tests comprises an outlet having a rectangular slot.
  • the section S of the outlet is therefore equal to the length L multiplied by the width e of the slot.
  • the substrates are pieces of silicon 100 cleaned beforehand with acetone and then with ethanol.
  • the translation velocity relatively to the nozzle and to the surface to be coated was set to 7 mm ⁇ s ⁇ 1 in the direction of the x axis with reference to FIG. 1 , so as to deposit a sufficient amount of solution per unit surface for allowing the formation, of a layer in the thickness range for which the iridescences related to optical interferences, indicators of optical quality, are visible.
  • This velocity further gives the possibility of adjusting the thickness of the layer.
  • the invention is not limited by this deposition velocity.
  • the velocity of the flow is varied by incrementing the pressure of the gas injected into the aerosol generator by 0.5 bars every 20 mm between 0.5 bars and 4.5 bars, so as to compare the effect of the velocity of the aerosol flow on a same sample.
  • the samples are grouped under three categories: the bars NO represent the surface samples having poor optical quality, the bars O represent the surface samples having good optical quality, and the bars Int represent the surface samples having an intermediate optical quality.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 illustrate the number of samples in each category for different ratio R1 intervals (flow velocity F).
  • solution A gives the possibility of obtaining a few samples having a good optical quality (2 out of 156, i.e. about 1.5%)

  • solution D gives the possibility of obtaining even more (13 out of 156, i.e. about 8.3%).
  • the aqueous solution E only gives the possibility of obtaining samples of good optical quality from 15 metres per second.
  • the nozzle should not be too far from the surface to be coated. This is illustrated by the histograms of FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrating the number of samples in each category, for different ratio R2 intervals (flow F velocity divided by the distance D between the outlet of the nozzle and the surface to be coated).
  • Curves 1 and 2 in dashed lines illustrate empirically, an “application corridor”, acceptable for the alcoholic solutions A, B, C and D. Also the curves 3 and 4 empirically illustrate an “application corridor” acceptable for the aqueous solutions E.
  • the method according to the invention therefore gives the possibility of obtaining surfaces with optical quality more rapidly than with the known methods, since the projection velocity is increased. For 2 different F/S ratios, it is possible to obtain identical optical qualities by acting on the translation velocity parameter.
  • Sol-gel formulations with precursors of the TiCl 4 type (for TiO 2 films) or TEOS (for SiO 2 films) were tested with as a majority solvent methanol or isopropanol.
  • compositions in grams, of these solutions are given in the following table:
  • the more the alcoholic solvent is volatile the more the risk is incurred that the solution evaporates rapidly and that the deposit is “dry” and therefore of a non-optimum optical quality.
  • the deposit is on the other hand “too liquid” and the homogeneity of the film becomes difficult to control during the deposition.
  • an optical quality deposit was obtained by using a nozzle including a slot with a width e of less than 0.6 mm and with a distance between the nozzle and the substrate of less than 7 mm (without applying the additional solvent bubbler). Good results were obtained with an injected gas pressure in the aerosol generator from 3 to 4 bars.
